For how I make these collages, see the post Anatomy of a Text Collage.
Sometimes when I look at the big picture of all the projects I want to accomplish and art I want to create, I get overwhelmed and discouraged. It’s in those moments that I feel like I’ll never get anything done. But I know that the only way to accomplish anything is to go about it in small, consistent, measured steps… because they really do add up! So I try and knock out tiny to-dos for each of my projects as often as possible — read: as often as I have the time and energy — so that I always feel like I’m managing to get at least something done :P
That said, I spent a few hours this evening today working on another collage. Hooray! I’m currently collecting words and phrases for three more collages (for the First Collection/see #2 of 5) and recently all the September issues of Elle, Vogue, Bazaar, and W arrived, so it’s a prime time to be collaging in my house :)
Since everything I’m creating right now is in the works, I thought I’d post the collage Cory Is… here. This collage is the first piece for the First Collection (above: edited photo, below: more accurate to true color).
